Product History
Martell Cordon Bleu was created in 1912 by Edouard Martell, the great-grandson of the founder. Named after the blue ribbon which is an international emblem of excellence, it was destined to be one of a kind: a new quality of cognac to be served in the world’s leading hotels and restaurants; a cognac to delight even the most demanding connoisseurs. More than a century later, it is widely regarded as one of the finest cognacs in the world.
Remarkable for its richness, elegance and finesse, Martell Cordon Bleu is a masterful blend of more than 100 eaux-de-vie. Its lusciously full, floral aromas are the result of rare eaux-de-vie
from the small Borderies cru, which represents just 5% of cognac vineyards. Emblematic of the Martell style, Martell Cordon Bleu is not only an authentic expression of the Borderies,
but also a symbol of Maison Martell’s savoir-faire and attachment to its terroir.
Color: A warm copper colour with glints of gold.
Nose: Intense aromas of ripe yellow fruit including mirabelle plum, greengage, apricot and vine peach.
Taste: Luscious fruit notes fuse deliciously with hints of wood and soft spices from the red barrels, creating an impression of elegance and perfect balance on the palate.
With its distinctive bottle, Martell XO combines the elegant roundness of the Borderies with the power of the Grande Champagne eaux-de-vie. An outstanding cognac bearing the hallmark of the Martell style.
